HONDA WONT REPLACE THE FRAME BUT THEY WILL HAVE IT SANDBLASTED AND REPOWERCOATED. YOULL HAVE TO HAVE A HONDA REP LOOK AT IT AND EXAMIN IT. iF I WAS YOU I WOULD HAVE THE HONDA DEALER SET UP AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE HONDA REP TO LOOK AT IT. THEY WOULDNT REPLACE THE FRAME BECAUSE IT HAS TO DO WITH CHANGING THE SS#'s. AFTER I HAD THE HONDA REP LOOK AT IT AND OK IT TO BE REPOWERCOATED, I HAD TO FIND A PLACE THAT DOSE POWERCOATING WHICH WAS THE CUSTOM HARLEY SHOP DOWN THE ROAD, GAVE THE PHONE# TO THE HONDA DEALER AND HE TOOK CARE OF ALL THE REST. HONDA DEALER STRIPPED THE MACHINE DOWN TO THE FRAME AND TOOK MY FRAME, A-ARMS, AND OIL TANK TO THE HARLEY SHOP. IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS I GOT IT BACK AND IT LOOKS GREAT, GOT TONS OF COMPLAMENTS ON IT. I GOT TO EVEN PICK THE COLOR WHICH WENT WITH CHARCHOL METALLIC. THE HARLY SHOP DONE SUCH A GREAT JOB ON THE POWDERCOATING THAT ITS SO THICK THAT I CAN HARDLY READ MY SS#'s. HOPE THIS HELPS!

WHY IS EVERYONE TALKING IN CAPITALS? I THINK THIS IS WHAT CRDAY98 IS REFERING TO.
Mine has been flaking for a year now and I am powdercoating it red this winter.
